Who is the most unlucky dragon king in the novel The Journey to the West?
In the Journey to the West, the King of Jinghe is also the water god in charge. He not only has his own fief, but also enjoys life safely in his own territory. However, with the appearance of a fortune teller named Yuan, his ending was slowly changed. Mr. Yuan is a psychic and can calculate many things. It is also because he helps a fisherman calculate his fishing position every day, which has aroused the dissatisfaction of King Jinghe. The original good ecological environment in the waters was seriously damaged by fortune tellers, which made the fish diced by Jinghe Shui people wither. This is the first reason why King Jinghe was unlucky.
So he sent his eldest son disguised as a fisherman to befriend the old fisherman, and finally got the secret out of the old fisherman and knew the existence of the fortune teller. So King Jinghe disguised himself as a fortune teller and came to Mr. Yuan to ask about the weather. And made a deal with Mr. Yuan. If the divination doesn't work, he will tear down his signboard and smash his stall. In the end, the wise King Jinghe, encouraged by his son, changed the time and frequency of rain privately in order to win the gambling game. But it also led to his murder and eventually his beheading, which was the second reason for his bad luck.
Another reason why King Jinghe was unlucky was that he dreamed that Li Shimin let him entangle Wei Zhi instead of beheading him. As a result, Wei Zhi killed him in his dream, which he never expected. Therefore, the Dragon King of Jinghe is the most unlucky dragon king in Journey to the West. Because of a little thing, he finally lost his official position and his life.
